Question abt formula going bad...please answer quick

DS is FF and BF bc i am not making enough milk these days keep up w/ him.

Anyway, im upstate at my summer house. DS woke early and my mom took him. Then MIL came by and wanted to take him for a walk. So my mom made a bottle of formula for MIL to take on the walk in case DS got cranky. The thing is, she MADE the bottle. How long is this good for? Esp since MIL is walking outside (not super hot out but not cold)

If he does not drink it on the walk, I would dump it when they get home.

Out in this summer heat I would say it's prob good for not more than an hour.

I generally like to use a bottle within 2 hours of making it, but in this heat I usually won't go more than an hour or so.

I would go with the one hour...I would consider it the same as the bottles that have been warmed and in use. Do you have one of those cooler bags?...I have one that holds one bottle and a small ice pack, then I would say longer.
